i'm quite a bit older and perhaps wiser than most on this site. some of you see this as a 'safety hazzard'. thats fine. i'm not one to 'goof' on something as serious as operation of a motor vehicle. i remember the day when cars did not have this clutch switch. there were things taught in my drivers ed that doesn't apply anymore because of these switches. but, in a time of need or crisis, having this mod can help!

dead battery? if you have a couple of people you can push start the car. push it with clutch in, pop the clutch (2nd gear) and varoom you going....hopefully

car stalls and doesnt start for some reason like on a friggin train track? easy, keep in gear and turn the key. (1st gear)

you may be laughing but i was actually taught this in high school...haha
